Permanent limiter
If the vehicle should never exceed a specific
speed (e.g. for driving in winter tyre mode), you
can set this speed with the permanent limiter.
You do this by limiting the speed to a value
between 160 km/h and 240 km/h in the multi‐
media system ( page 141).
/
Shortly before the set speed is reached, it
appears in the multifunction display. When you
confirm the message, display messages no lon‐
ger appear until you switch off the vehicle. The
speed will only be displayed again once the vehi‐
cle has been restarted or if the set speed is
changed.
The permanent limiter does not switch to pas‐
sive mode even during kickdown and the driven
speed remains below the set speed.

Active Distance Assist DISTRONIC
Function of Active Distance Assist
DISTRONIC
Active Distance Assist DISTRONIC maintains the
set speed on free-flowing roads. If vehicles in
front are detected, the set distance is main‐
tained, if necessary, until the vehicle comes to a
halt. The vehicle accelerates or brakes depend‐
ing on the distance to the vehicle in front and
the set speed. The speed (in the range between
30 km/h and 200 km/h) and the distance to the
vehicle in front are set and saved on the steering
wheel.
